RealGM - Trey Burke Wants To Make Immediate Impact

[Utah Jazz Newsfeed]

Trey Burke understands the Utah Jazz will most likely be his team to run from the start, and the rookie point guard says he's ready for the responsibilities.
"Absolutely. I love challenges and this is one of the biggest challenges of my life," Burke said. "I’ve prepared for this challenge. I’m definitely looking forward to going in there and making an impact right away."
Burke feels pressure being the Jazz's starting point guard, but he also senses lowered expectations for the team from outsiders.
"But with my mind set, I love to win, so I plan on winning," Burke said. "As bold as that sounds, I just plan on winning. I think it’s only pressure if you put the pressure on yourself. If I go out there trying to please the fans, trying please the coaching staff, rather than just playing my game, that’s where the pressure comes. But I think I’ll do just fine.

Kind of bold to be expecting to start. I don't feel like its a sure thing he does. Not with the way Corbin does things. I'm not sure. I'm just a little worried he might be getting ahead of himself.

I hope he does start though.

I like his attitude..... seemd like a nice mix of cocky/confident/swagg

Now if he were just quicker and taller

Just so everyone knows... no one gives a damn that he was the Naismith PotY anymore.

I agree. I could see Corbin starting Lucas.
Everyone is assuming its a done deal Trey starts.
I just don't believe it(until I hopefully see it)
